I'm starting a link exchange for blogs and websites for Java developed games. The rule is you put the listing on your website or blog as listed below. The goal is some cross referencing and give more weight to the search engines. Please list before requesting.

All right. Well then I suggest putting very succinctly what you want everyone to do, then we can do it.

Don't forget though that JGO already links to a lot of peoples' websites via signatures, so putting a list of everyone's site here won't make a giant difference. If you're specifically offering link exchanges for everyone's site (like I link to yours you link to mine) then I'm sure at least a few people would be interested in that. Just make it clear exactly what you want everyone else to do.

Doesn't the Google search algorithm detect cyclic references such as those generated by a link exchange and reduce their significance these days? They have done a lot of work on stopping people manipulating the search results.

It won't hurt but it might not do as much good as you expect.

I agree with you and that is why I do not encourage the authors using my website to link to it even though this method was often used in Flash games websites some years ago.

Sorry Darrin, I have just found at least one dead link in your list.

Hehe, doesn't really matter as not that many people seem keen on driving traffic in this manner. IMHO, seems like a no brainer to have people actually check out the games in any manner possible. It takes 5 minutes to put up a link and if it gets you a sale it was worth it.
